Stopping formatting from resolving pathexec #2104

Issue Description

If I have a command that can be resolved to an .exe or .cmd or another PATHEXT extension, formatting the document adds the extension to it.

e.g.

node --version

becomes

node.exe --version

I would like to be able to stop this from happening somehow.

Why would this be a problem if it's accurate you may ask? Because I'm trying to write a PowerShell script that would be ran via PowerShell core on Linux, where "node" is just "node", not "node.exe". That same script is also compatible with Windows and PowerShell 5.1, but to achieve the cross platform compatibility, the extensions are intentionally removed.
